This document provides guidelines for contributing to the module.
The following dependencies must be installed on the development system:
The Inputs and Outputs tables in the READMEs of the root module,
submodules, and example modules are automatically generated based on
the variables
and outputs
of the respective modules. These tables
must be refreshed if the module interfaces are changed.
Run make generate_docs
to generate new Inputs and Outputs tables.
Integration tests are used to verify the behaviour of the root module, submodules, and example modules. Additions, changes, and fixes should be accompanied with tests.
The integration tests are run using Golang and are packaged within a Docker image for convenience.
The general strategy for these tests is to verify the behaviour of the example modules, thus ensuring that the root module, submodules, and example modules are all functionally correct.
The easiest way to test the module is in an isolated test project. The setup for such a project is defined in test/setup directory.
To use this setup, you need a service account with Project Creator access on a folder. Export the Service Account credentials to your environment like so:
export SERVICE_ACCOUNT_JSON=$(< credentials.json)
You will also need to set a few environment variables:
export TF_VAR_org_id="your_org_id"
export TF_VAR_folder_id="your_folder_id"
export TF_VAR_billing_account="your_billing_account_id"
With these settings in place, you can prepare a test project using Docker:
make docker_test_prepare
Run make docker_test_integration
to test all of the example modules
noninteractively, using the prepared test project.
Review the framework documentation to learn how to execute tests.
Many of the files in the repository can be linted or formatted to maintain a standard of quality.
Run make docker_test_lint
.
